Good point Joe.
If any forum member here wants to buy the model, I am happy to let my manservant, "Maramaduke" have an afternoon off, once a fortnight to come round to your house and do the Honnors as mentioned by "Tinman" in the previous post, just give him a cup of tea and a biscuit and he'll be happy with that.
Ghosty.

Bump! (If I didn't already have one, I'd have bought this.)

I think that has been detailed by a previous owner. It should have knobbly 11x24 wheels and these look like 45 treads. Also the trim looks as if it was brushed on.

Yes, that trim is pretty funky looking. It does lean hard towards owner detailing.

Now that you've pointed it out I have to agree that it
might be super-detailing. (On the other hand, there does not appear to be any other detailing.)

That would imply first-run bodies kep in storage only to be wheeled consoderably later. What wheels do they have?
